101 Power and storage management
Monitoring your battery usage helps identify what's using the most power so you can choose
what to do about it. For details, see Checking battery usage on page 99.
Turn on Airplane mode when you don't need any wireless connections and you don't want to
receive calls or messages.
Don't use a live wallpaper for your Home screen. Animation effects are nice to show off to
other people but they drain your battery.
Changing your wallpaper to a plain, black background can also help a little. The less color is
displayed, the less battery is used.
For more details, see Settings and security on page 158 and Personalizing on page 50.
Many apps run processes or sync data in the background even when you're not using them. If
there are apps that you don't need anymore, uninstall them.
If an app came preloaded and can't be uninstalled, disabling the app can still prevent it from
continuously running or syncing data. See Disabling an app on page 163.
102 Power and storage management
In Settings, tap Accounts & sync and check what types of data are being synced in your
online accounts. When the battery is starting to run low, temporarily disable syncing some
data.
If you have many email accounts, consider prolonging the sync time of some accounts.
In the Mail app, select an account, tap > Settings > Sync, Send & Receive, and then adjust
the settings under Sync schedule.
When youre not traveling from one place to another, sync weather updates of only your
current location, rather than in all of your named cities. Open the Weather app, and then tap
to edit and remove unneeded cities.
Some widgets constantly sync data. Consider removing the ones that are not important from
your Home screen.
In Play Store, tap > Settings, and then clear Add icon to Home screen to avoid
automatically adding Home screen app shortcuts whenever you've installed new apps. Also
tap Auto-update apps > Do not auto-update apps if you're fine with updating apps from
Play Store manually.
Other tips
To squeeze in a little bit more battery power, try these tips:
Minimize the use of vibration or sound feedback. In Settings, tap Sound & notification and
choose which ones you don't need and can disable.
Check your apps settings as you may find more options to optimize the battery.
Storage
Types of storage
Starting from Android 6.0, there have been some changes on how and where downloaded apps and
their data can be stored.
Phone storage
This is the internal storage which contains the Android system, preinstalled apps, email, text
messages, and cached data from the apps. You can also install apps that you've downloaded and
capture photos, videos, and screenshots to this storage.
103 Power and storage management
Storage card
Use your storage card as a removable storage to store and access your media and other files on
HTC One X9 or any Android phone, or set it up as an extension of the internal storage. See Should I
use the storage card as removable or internal storage? on page 103.
USB storage
You can plug in an external USB storage device such as a USB flash drive or an SD card reader. You
need a special cable to connect HTC One X9 and a USB storage device.
Removable storage
Use a new storage card as removable storage to be able to insert and use the card on HTC One X9
and other Android phones.
Internal storage
Set up a new storage card as internal storage for more privacy and secure use. This encrypts and
formats the storage card to work just like the internal storage.
Captured screenshots, camera shots, media, and other files will be stored on the storage card.
Third-party apps that you installed and their data can be moved between the phone storage
and storage card.
After setting up the storage card as internal storage, the card can only be used on HTC One X9

to the phone storage. See Moving apps and data between the phone storage and storage card on
page 104.
